I'm sticking with the "IT'S ALIENS" hypothesis.

Damn it, I hate that History switched to a separate West Coast channel. It's still three hours before I'll have watched this.

John, are you and Bonney going to do more Mom on Pop podcasts? I miss them.

This seems like it will be a highly civilized comment section.

What name did you register under? I'll ping Douay to let you in. We've had problems with trolls recently, so now all new accounts need to be approved by him.

Attention, Pawnee. We are reasonably satisfied with the events we have seen. Overall I would rate it a C+. Okay, not great. As a result, we will not destroy your planet. But neither will we provide you with our recipe for immortality.

I clicked on this review specifically because of the Half-Life reference.

Holy cow. I thought maybe Tumblr was just being Tumblr, but I searched out the scenes between Athelstan & Ragnar and Athelstan & Ecbert and wow.

I've been sending my friend an email every time I finish an episode.

Bjorn has decided that Oedipal and Electra complexes alone aren't enough for him. He's going to combine them.

Oh my god, the straps aren't digging into my shoulders anymore! I don't have extra armpit boob anymore! Everything fits in the cup! And even…

FUCK YEAH VIKINGS!

Neat. One of my friends teaches at Hoover, and I've read to her class for the last couple years' Read Across America.

. . . cursable levels of dopeness . . .

It's sort of masturbatory.

The "World of Cardboard" speech is a great speech, but it always bugged me that Superman fought Darkseid in the middle of Metropolis. Even if it had been evacuated, it's so much destruction of property and memory and money for the normal folks (sure, Wayne's rich, but even he can't rebuild Metropolis). And yeah, it…

Ah, c'mon. No shoujo on your list? No Sailor Moon or Utena? Or Madoka Magica which is CLEARLY NOT SHOUJO why would anyone ever think that
